Every busy man will recognize the truth of the remark made by President White, of Cornell Uni versity, in an address to the stu dents last Saturday. Said he: We constantly have these two things. a vast number of young fellows running about the country doing almost anything and doing ill; and on the other hand,a cOnsid erable number of places, looking almost in vam for for somebody to do the best work. No occupation or profession that those at the top are not worked almost to death. -- Philadelphia Enquirer.

Itli you now l commenced Tn lifeg Certainly. Sit down and make yourself comfortable. You look thoroughly disheartcned for young man.
 "l am discouraged, Mr. Myers. have tried every day, for six weeks to get a position, and there is none to be had. That is the sum and substance of the whole matter. As he spoke, David Ed wards dropped into the proffered chair The bright carpet, glow ing grate and comfortable atmoS. pherc of Lawyer Meyers cozy li- brary were very homelike and at tractive, especially to the young man who had spent the whole day out in the rain trying to secure a hoped for position.
 "Thcre is no use," he said with a long-drawn sigh. l have tried for the last time. Prosperity is not for everybody"
 Lawyer Meyers laid down the evening paper.
 "Iou have asked me to tell yon how l got started, David. and l will. And l want you to profit by the rehearsal"
 After 1 had taken my course of law, had graduated with honOrS and obtained my diploma, l sup posed myself qualified to enter upon the duties of a professional man. So l packed my satchel and came to the city to look for an opening.n
 The first man applied to was Col. Hawkins, the now famous criminal lawyer. He was par. ticular friend of one "f the profes. sors and supposed that my di- ploma would be all the intrOduc. ton that l should need-that he would actually take me into his confidence at Once.'
 "YOu discovered your mistake, l presume" interrupted the young man in a delected tone.
 Yes 1 discovered it. ] went to the Colonel and told him my plans. I shall never forget the look he gave me. A look over pair of steel,rimmed spectacles that made me feel as though 1 was about the size of Il spindle"
 "'Young man, he said in n so- nOrOus tone that made me shiver, take my advice and never enter law! The profession is crowded to death /! Men are actually star. wing, sitting in their office chairs waiting for clients. There is no money in it, sir. Lawyers have had their day, and the rising gen eration must look upa new busi. ness.
 with that he bowed, and dis. missed me-
 "Of course, 1 did what any other young man would have done un' der similar circumstances back to the cheerless room on the third floor of my boarding house with the blues. l considered Col. Hawkins an autOcrat. If he said there was no chance in the prOfes. sion, l accepted it as a foregOne conclusiOn."
 "What did you do then, sir,' asked Davld, his interest already becoming aroused.
 ''l was going 10 tell you what l did. While l sat there feeling so homesick and wishing thiat l had never been born, Mrs. Green, my landlady came in. She wanted to know what the trouble was, and l told her. She said Col. Hawkins ought to know and advised me to abandon the idea of trying law.

containing this clause for free educa-
ton was submitted to the people for
adoption it would possibly have been
rejected. if it had generally received
attention. The chief article of discus
sion was that providing for an elective
judiciary; that mostly absorbed all else.
AS an Illustration of the antagonism
to a system of free education, the pro-
position to establish free schools in this
town was under consideration some
years before it was engrafted in the
constitution. Frequent meetings were
held to discuss its propriety. It is a
strange fact that much of the opposi-
ton came from mechanics and laboring
men, who We're not liable to taxation.
A meeting of working men was called
to consider the expediency of tax on
property to maintain free schools
Rev. Mr.. Hatch, rector of the Episcopal
church, addressed the NEE ting, enGcay
oring TO persuade his hearers of the
working classes that free schools was
one of their needs. Although his ar.
guments were sound and logical, they
were not satisfying. Without coming
to any conclusion, the meeting broke
up in confusion.

GAME-WHEN MAY BE CAUGHT
TAKEN OR KILLED.

Woodcock, July 10th to December
LIST; quail, partridge, pheasant, prairie
hen or prairie chicken, grouse of any
variety, or plover, September LIST to De-
cember LIST; snipe, wild duck of any
variety, wild goose or brant of any

1t will be seen by the above that the
legislature has limited the time in which
deer may be killed to forty-one days in
each year. Deer have heretofore been
killed by pot-hunters until the immense
numbers that formerly roamed through
the forests of northern Wisconsin have
been nearly annihilated. The preserva-
ton of this splendid animal in the
beautiful forests of this state is earnest
ly desired by every intelligent sports
man. The pot-hunter who kills for
market is always promptly on hand
with the latest improved weapons of
slaughter. His cabin or tent is erected
before the open season commences, and
he has the full forty-one days in which
to kill the beautiful animal, not for any
love of the chase, but simply to fill his
pockets with ill-gotten ducats. 1t is this
class of hunters who have exterminated
the American bison, and unless the
legislature of the different states make
a close season the year around for tae
skin hunters, and do it soon, the deer
will tread the same bloody trail on a
trot by the bison. ! have known one
hunter to slaughter three thousand
buffaloes in one season. The hides were
stripped off, folded up and sold for three
dollars a piece On the ground. The
meat, which might have been a source
of comfort to thousands of poor people,
was left to rot where the animal fell, or
went into the maws of the cyotes and
wolves. The close season for deer as it
now is is we'll worthy of d re-considera-
ton by the law makers of this state.

RANDALL.

Mrs. VIM. A. McKesson is in Chicago
visiting her mother.
The last news we have heard about
the new railroad is contradictory. A
prominent gentleman says he has let
ter from one of the company, which says
that the farmers in Randall are asking
so much for the right-of-way that the
company think seriously of trying the
route through Wheatland. Contra, we
hear that grading is going to commence
east of Wilmot by the 1st of November
Last Friday the family of Sylvester
Coon, who are living in Ed. Bassett's
house, were all away from home for a
time. When they returned Mrs. Coon
discovered that the screen nailed to the
outside of the north window was un-
fastened and hanging loosely. She at
once knew that the house had been en-
tered in their absence, and g. search re-
vealed that the children's purse and
bank. containing about 81, was missing.
Mr.. Coon's suspicious at once settled on
Frank Jones, of Lake county, ILL.,, who
was working for James White, and on
Monday he had Jones arrested on a
warrant issued by Justice George Fay,
of SHADES Corners, and served by Con-
stable Kessler. Jones at once confessed
and restored the property. He was ar
raigned before the Justice, and there
again confessed, stating that it was his
first offence and would be his last, and
asked the court for mercy. The Justice
fined him small sum and let him 90.

CANADIAN IMMIGRATION.

Late Canadian statistics show that
nearly every eighth blue-nose" in the
maritime provinces has found home
in the United States. The proportion is
said to stand us, 564 in the Dominion to
100000 here. The discovery is men
toned as u startling fact" in official
circles, and the question is raised, what
can be done to prevent such drain on
the population. They allege that they
have tried confederation and it has
failed. They tried home protection and
it only aggravated the evil. Then they
built the Canada Pacific railroad, and
that has furnished an easier method OF
escape, and multitudes take advantage
of it. What can be done to restrain a
people settled on the borders of glaci er
field from seeking better soil, food and
sunshine? 1t is conundrum not yet
answered, and while they are puzzling
over it the cry on this side is, "still they
come"
We think if the people are wise all the
provinces should be emptied into the
United States. We could then annex
the pineries, and settle the fishery ques-
ton, and use the country for kind of
national preserve. 1t could be turned
into good fur-bearing region; its fish
would be utilized for markets without
taxation its coal would compete with
ours, and its harbors be handy for seal
ers and whalers. Indeed, many things
of value would accrue to Us, but not
half as many as they would secure. A
territory or two would suffer for the
whole lot, and Uncle Sam can easily
spare that amount of land.-Mitvaukee

The Wisconsin Liquor-dealers' Anti
Prohibition Association held its regular
meeting in Milwaukee last week. The
presiding officer of the association, in
his opening remarks, deplored the
smallness of the attendance, saying:
al suppose good many of the dele
gates stayed at home, feeling sense of
security, because the President of The
United States, on his recent visit here,
Joined our society--indirectly, of course.
We feel grateful to the President, for
he has aided our cause greatly, directly
and indirectly" This statement was
received with much applause by the
convention. What gave rise to this
action OF the convention was the visit
of Grover Cleveland while in Milwau-
kee to Best's brewery. the largest es-
tablishment of the kind in the country,
and to which he had been invited to
see its wonderful magnitude. He ac-
cepted and drank glass of Best's
lager beer. This he had right to do.
not as privileged man more than any
private citizen. 1t is presumable
there are in the state at least a few
conscientious total abstinence Demo-
Gratis, who believe our public men
should not set an example of this kind
before the people. Mr.. Cleveland is
probably not over anxious about his
tenn peIance influence, for, when asked
by table waiter which he preferred,
wine or whisky. he replied, Whisky
is good enough for me-"

FARMERS INSTITUTES.

Farmers in the sections of the state
where the earlier Institutes will be
held are already making preparation
for these meetings by appointing com.
mittees and getting things in readiness.
1t is evident that the past Institutes
which have been held have awakened
a new interest. and that the coming
meetings will be more systematically
conducted, and therefore the results
more profitable. 1t is yet too soon to
move in the matter in this county, but
the people of the city should not forget
that the state committee have selected
this city for the place of holding the
institute. There are now some ap-
parent inconvenience in the way, but
it is hoped they will be obyiated before
the time comes.

ton Convention was begun at Madi-
son Thursday afternoon and closed on
Sunday evening. Over 200 delegates
were in attendance. Mr.. w. E. Lewis,
State Secretary, had the general man
agement of the meetings. The report
showed there are now 81 organizations
in the state. and a membership of
nearly 1000, which is an increase of
about one-half during the past year.
Four new association buildings were
erected the year past-Racine. Milwau-
kee, Oshkosh and Ashland-valued

EMIGRATION.

In our paper last week the necessity
of restricting foreign emigration was
mentioned. This subject is becoming
so generally discussed. it is hopeful
some action will now be taken in the
right direction. The object sought to
be obtained is not surrounded with so
many diff culties as was supposed
when it 6rst began to be agitated. Un-
expectedly, much larger number Of
our foreign-born citizens favor the pro-
posal of restriction than were believed
friendly to such measure. It is
gratifying to notice that many leading
adopted citizens advocate restricted
immigration for the peace and safety
of our American institutions. The
delicacy therefore in broaching the
subject. lest it might give offence to
the foreign population here. need no
longer exist. The ablest minds who
have given the matter in vestigation
express the opinion that our laws regu.
lating the incoming of foreigners have
not been enforced to the letter as they
should have been; otherwise the often.
siye people who have come to our
shores would not have been permitted
here. If the authorities will but do
their duty, the action of Congress need
not be waited for to begin the rejec-
ton of improper persons who are not
suitable to become residents. 1t will

THE LATEST TERRIBLE
TRAGEDY.

Crime and tragic events continue
every week to follow closely after
each other. The readers of this paper
have probably all before this heard of
the terrible crime committed near the
door of one of the large churches in
Chicago, just as the great congregation
was leaving at the close of tue morn
ing service. A young man. eighteen
years of age, fires five shots from re-
volver at his step-father, a prominent
banker, each shot taking effect, more
or less seriously. His alleged reason
for the murderous act was the wrong
done his mother by the step-father in
seeking divorce from her. When the
mother was informed of the deed her
son mad committed. she replied, am
glad of it; hope he is dead" 1t is be-
lieved by many the son had taken
counsel of his mother just before going
to the church. IF the facts should
turn out as suspected, the mother and
son should both be hung on the same
gallows.
The pastor of the church, Third
Presbyterian, Rev. DR.. Withrow, re-.
marked. in view of the occurrence:
"He felt that any one who would
desecrate the sabbath by prowling
about a church and shooting one of the
worshippers, was thoroughly cold
blooded. and no doubt spurred on to
commit the act by the examples set by
others, who were allowed by the law
to escape punishment. He condemned
the slow procedures of the law that
allowed cases to drag until they were
almost forgotten, and also condemned
the lawyers who were always ready 10
defend the blacklist of criminals, about
whose guilt there was no doubt what
soever, and who by such acts made
crime almost a virtue. He was of the
opinion that such lawyers degraded
their profession, and should be ostra-
cised from good society. He did not
wish to say anything against the law
yers who defend men regarding whose
guilt, or the extent of whose guilt,
there is some doubt"
At last accounts there were hopes
entertained of the recovery of the
banker Rawson, whose murder was
attempted, as above stated, last Sum-
day.
